"An engrossing locked-room mystery with a dose of Hollywood Hills glamour and a twist you'll never see coming!" — Charlotte Lillie Balogh, author of Kill The Lax Bro and Capsized"If you told me my survival was contingent on predicting the plot twists of Worse Than the Others, I’m sorry to say I would fare just about as well as these characters. Reed’s Hollywood locked-room mystery with a cast you truly cannot trust and its standout, brilliant ending is such a bloody fun read." — Trish Lundy, author of The One That Got Away with Murder"Worse Than the Others captures everything I love about Mackenzie Reed’s thrillers: a sharp, savvy narrator; cleverly constructed clues; and a setting so alive it feels like its own character. The haunting Haven Hotel—and the teens haunted by their own secrets locked inside it—had me glued to the page, and once I got to that twist, I knew I’d be reading well into the night . . . with the light on, of course." — Meredith Adamo, Morris Award-winning author of Not Like Other Girls"Your new favorite spooky mystery has arrived! Heart-pounding and packed with suspense, Worse Than the Others is a Mackenzie Reed classic. Speeding at a breakneck pace toward a gasp-out-loud twist ending, you’re in for a wild adventure alongside teen detective Ames as she investigates a complex cast of characters and tries to survive the night." — Kara Kennedy, author of I Will Never Leave You
